In this video I disassemble the Whirlpool washing machine splutch and explain how each component functions. This device can be found on all modern Whirlpool brand washing machines. These brands include, Maytag, Amana, Conservator, Kenmore and many others. If you enjoy videos where different components of household appliances are explained then you have found the right channel. If your washer has short sporadic motor noises when it is in the wash cycle your splutch is probably not shifting correctly and your agitator and spin drum are both engaged at the same time and the splutch should be changed or lubricated.
Welcome to the education channel for washing machine and dryer technicians and DIY’ers wanting to solve common and not-so-common problems you may encounter in your business or laundry room. Learn tips and tricks and how to make specialty tools and devices needed to make your job easier. We also cover how we structure and run our thriving small business.

Thanks for all the time and effort you put into these videos! The very last line of this one clued me in haha "if the spin basket and agitator both try to move at the same time" ding ding! I had been trying to figure out without knowing beforehand exactly how each piece was supposed to be operating. Without that information it's pretty hard to figure out if it's operating incorrectly! The level of detail in your videos is something you can't find in a service manual. Only from experience - so thanks for sharing yours so that we can benefit from it!

Great description of the splutch and its function. Your comment on how the splutch should move freely saved me from calling a repair man. I have a Whirlpool Cabrio washer and was having issues with it spinning. I replaced the actuator, and the splutch but the washer still would not work. Next I replaced the solenoid, but it still would not run. After watching your video and better understanding the splutch function I realized the new splutch was defective. The slide on the splutch would not move freely and the actuator could not change the position. After pulling the new splutch off and putting the old splutch back on the washer was back in operation.

Thank you for the informative video brother. I've got parts that will be here in a couple days. Both drive hub and the splutch kit. Pulley nut came off no problem but the pulley won't budge off the bolt. The splutch ring also detached no prob but the pulley won't budge. Splutch is melted where attached to washer, not pulley, so I'm thinking heat must have bound the pulley to the splutch like lock tight.

There are several videos, mostly in Spanish where people in "3rd world" countries have more time than money. For them, a bearing replacement is worth it. I don't remember if this video shows it, but one of the repair people had bearings in OE Whirlpool packaging. I googled the numbers and kept getting supply houses in Mexico. An closeup of the actual bearing revealed that it is a common 206, avail at any parts house. One of the YT parts store videos gave the p/n for the tub to transmission seal. Usually, the parts breakdown shows the seal included with the new transmission and not avail separately. The metal sleeve he had trouble with may be the same as the Cabrio bearing kit (?), the machine with the big pancake motor windings at the bottom of the tub. I don't know if there are any more seals used on the transmission. Most of these will leak, kill the bearings to where they sound like an airplane, on spin and later, leaking water will corrode the shifter. If I don't have a leaker, seems like I have good luck flipping these machines over, taking the splunge apart, lightly greasing it and swapping in a good shifter. 90% of the time, after recalibration, the problems are gone. I am running out of old school machines and these new models are starting to pile up. I am still hoping the transmissions will take a big drop in price once the warehouses realize they need to get their money and get out of this model. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nZ_GsvkpSQQ.html 2nd vid ru-vid.comj_jNGvG5QZk?feature=share

This is good stuff Professor. Like you said, these folks have more time to do this than we have.There was an outfit in the US that was rebuilding these and selling them as reconditioned parts. I bought a GE transmission from them once. Their price was under a new part but still too high for me to make much profit. If they're going to make these parts unserviceable they should at least make them affordable. Thanks for this great information and the video link too.

@HarperandKnowles

You're not having much luck with that thing, are you? Try holding the start button down and see if the lid lock will open. or try unplugging and after a minute or so plug it back in and give it a minute or so. if that doesn't work see if you can get it into diagnostic mode and try cycling the lid lock from there.

Great Video Sir! Any chance you would know why i am able to completely remove the shaft from the top of this exact same washer while the agitator is still connected? There is nothing retaining the shaft and nobody seems to have an answer as to a fix. I can grab the agitator plate from the top and the agitator, and shaft will completely pull up with ease. Is there a clip, pin, or bolt that is supposed to lock that shaft in place? Thanks in advance. I was hoping this video was going to show me how the shaft secured from thr bottom!
@HarperandKnowles
@HarperandKnowles 4 месяца назад
There probably is a C-clip or something inside The gear case that holds the shaft in place but it must have come off. Unfortunately, this is contained within the gearbox and not accessible to service personnel. I have never seen this before. You, Sir, have a unique malfunction. Thanks for watching!

My Maytag clicks extremely loud multiple times in between a cycle, like you can hear it on the other side of the house. I have always wondered if it was the splutch, called repair service and they had no idea so they threw a new pump in. Did not fix issue. Out of warranty. Wondering cost to replace splutch with labor time is worth it on 5 year old washer?
@HarperandKnowles
@HarperandKnowles Год назад
It sounds like you're on the right track suspecting the splutch. Before considering a replacement, you can check the splutch for free movement. If it doesn't shift smoothly, then it's likely worth changing both the splutch and possibly the shift actuator. The cost-effectiveness of the repair will depend on whether you plan to do the work yourself or hire a service technician and their charges for the job. Good luck with your decision, and thanks for watching my channel!

@HarperandKnowles

Of course I can’t determine what’s wrong with your machine remotely but I would check the capacitor and the agitator splines. If you take the flapper off the lid and slip it into the cabinet slot you can observe what’s happening better. You could also have a motor that is turning in only one direction. That would cause your clothes to tangle around the agitator. Thanks for watching!

@HarperandKnowles
@HarperandKnowles Год назад
I have seen this many times before. What is happening is the motor goes into reverse for a short period of time at the end of the spin cycle and that is what is making the whine sound almost like a braking effect. The stress on the splutch from this torque is causing the splutch gears to jump. This isn't a mechanical problem but a control board problem. This is an area that I'm not an expert in but I used to think that the manufacturer designed the machine to reverse the motor for a braking action after the spin cycle, and they may have, I don't know. I have the luxury of having used control boards from scrapped machines so I experimented and found when I swapped out the board, that fixes the problem. I wish I knew more about this problem perhaps someone with more knowledge than I will see this and educate all of us.

I believe the spin works but my clothes aren't coming out that clean unless I babysit it and open the lid when I start hearing the motor but no agitation. I don't know if the splutch is sticking or the actuator/shifter is weak.

The oil in the gearbox is heavy gear oil, probably 85-90 weight, and isn't serviceable. For lubing the splutch...? It is made of hard plastic that doesn't come with any apparent grease or oil on the parts. If the splutch is sticking I have used a dry Teflon-based lubricant made by WD40 to free it up. The belt is made from strong fibers impregnated in synthetic rubber. I'm not sure what the fibers are, perhaps kevlar? Thanks for watching.

I scrap these all the time. Amana. People always blow the transmission and bearing on these. And i dont replace bearing either so maybe 1 in 10 i get at the shop ends up on the floor. Its too bad they make these so flimsy now and keep slapping that super capcity on there so people overlaod and kill them in 2-5 years max

I have been repairing washers and dryers off and on since I was a kid in the 70's. I will take an old "wig-wag" over most of these newer models!!!

Mr. Harper has told me about those and he has a bunch of parts for them too. I have never had to work on one. I think they are considered machines of antiquity now. I wonder if any are still out there in my community??
